Do you know how tough Portland was @ home this season? Same with Houston....Dubs 2 straight close out games on the road.... If the Bucks were any good they would close Toronto out.....They are 1-2 years away and it is showing this series with the Raptors who are not a good team....
Raptors are not a good team?? They were the 2nd best team in the NBA all year behind the Bucks.
The Warriors feasted on the Blazers terrible perimeter D and lack of size all series and still were down double digits in the last 3 games. That shouldn't impress anyone.
Raptors/Bucks will have home court and the best player on the floor when one of them faces this Dubs squad.
Kawhi would shut Klay down and the combo of Lowry/Danny Green would make crybaby Steph go back to being Mr. Irrelevant in the NBA Finals.
Draymond is playing great and the Warriors can still definitely win but the Raptors match up really well with them and its a 50/50 pick imo.

You find 2 of the 4 best defensive guards in the NBA slowing down Chef Curry to be hilarious? Curry will still get his but I would expect stat lines similar to the Rockets series with maybe 1 game where he blows up like in Game 6 2nd half vs the Rockets.
You can throw away the Blazers series. Lillard and CJ play no defense and their big man can't hedge off a screen or defend a P&R to save their lives.
Raptors have Gasol and Ibaka, 2 of the smartest veteran defending big men in the game.
Warriors are going to need to put their big boy pants on for this series if it happens.

Yeah I'm sure the Dubs are shaking in their boots to face the Raptors.....A team that has shown to choke in the playoffs and have major scoring issues...

They have Kawhi Leonard now if you haven't noticed is a stone cold killer on both ends of the floor.
They have veterans like Danny Green, Gasol and Ibaka who know nothing about choking and have as much playoff experience as the Warriors.
This team put up 120 on the Bucks...they"ll slice up the Warriors nonexistent defense, especially at home.

Yeah, that Danny Green is an assasin. I'm sure a team that dealt with Houston and Portland's offense will have no answer for him.

No way they sweep the bucks, raptors yes but the bucks would give them one amazing game and then shit the bed for the rest of the series
hope Bucks can give an amazing game now with the Raptors...‘thus far, games looks sorry and being dominated by Raptors with only 1 good shooter (Leonard)

Danny Green's role will be to play great defense on Klay Thompson and hit open shots, that's all. He knows his role.
Who's stopping Kawhi on the Warriors? Nobody...he"ll send 34 year old Iguodala to the shadow realm.
I agree that the Dubs should have a rebounding edge on the Raptors and they have more reliable shooters.
Toronto has the better bench, home court, a better defense and the best player on the floor.

Dubs are a team that has gone up and beaten James Harden & LBJ(Last 3-4 year w/Cavs) who are leaps and bounds better scorers that Kawhi? LOL who's going to stop Kawhi...He's a great player but...Dubs if KD comes back will have 2 better players on the floor in Curry & KD than Kawhi...

You just said Toronto has a better bench. Ibaka, Van Vleet, and Norman Powell

No one in their right capping mind would dare say Raps will beat Warriors if they play...GS should be an overwhelming fav...just like Lakers were vs Pistons the year Shaq and Kobe got blindsided by the dog...crazy things can happen in sports.
The real question if these 2 teams meet, is what is the correct wager:
Raps +2.5 games or Warriors -2.5 games in the series...thats the only thing that will matter to the sharps...and at the moment, im leaning Raps +2.5 games as i see this ending on Golden States court in 6 games.
We shall see what happens soon enough...but i wouldnt be surprised at all now if Raps go on to beat the Bucks in 6...experience trumps everything here, and theres no doubt about it - The Greek has the yips and its getting uglier with every passing free throw.
Victory Belongs to the Most Tenacious

Danny Green and Kyle Lowry in the Playoffs are about as reliable as that Nigerian calling me yesterday saying he was with the IRS.
Dude, I find myself continuously reminding my mother in law that the IRS will never call or email you. And if they did, they wouldn't sound like "that".

Yes because GS is trotting out a washed up Livingston, McKinnie and Looney.
Looney has played well but FVV/Powell are better than Cook and Livingston.

Fred Van Vleet and Norman Powell are both trash. Van Vleet is better than Livingston simply because Livingston is old. I'd still rather have his length defensively than Van Vleet.

Curry can't hold Kawhi's jockstrap. You can't be a better player when the other team actively hunts you on defense. Wake me up when Curry shuts down the opposing team's best player like The Claw has done with Butler and Giannis.

Steph's been in the league for 2 years longer and Leonard has dealt with injuries for the past 5 years affecting his workload.
Leonard has 2x 1st Team All NBA selections, 2x Defensive POY and has a Finals MVP.
Curry has 1 more 1st Team All NBA selection and has those 2 MVPs but he's never won a Finals MVP and isn't on the same level as a defender.
You are the one that made the comment that Curry can't hold Kawhi's jock strap... I think it's the other way around buddy...Curry name is mentioned among being up there with the all time greats.. I never hear once Kawhi being mentioned as one of the best to ever play the game. I've heard numerous times..Curry is the best 3 point shooter ever...He's the 2nd best PG to ever play the game etc....When its all said and done...Curry will be a top 10-15 player to ever play the game and maybe higher....Kawhi won't even sniff top 25/30....
